About this paint

Blackthorn partners with Ecurie Ecosse. British-based race team Blackthorn have announced a partnership with the legendary Ecurie Ecosse brand to enter an Aston Martin GT3 EVO into the 2025/2026 Asian Le Mans Series (ALMS). While Ecurie Ecosse made occasional appearances in the Formula One World Championship, it was in sportscar racing that the iconic Edinburgh-based race team earned international acclaim. 2026 will mark Ecurie Ecosse’s 70th anniversary of winning the 1956 24 Hours of Le Mans with the Jaguar D-Type and it seems only fitting that the brand marks this occasion with a return to the top echelons of endurance racing. Indeed, the ALMS entry is just the start, with the partnership eager to continue the Le Mans journey begun by Ecurie Ecosse in the 1950s. Alasdair McCaig, Ecurie Ecosse team Director, commented: “It’s a tremendous privilege to lead a team with such a storied heritage. We’re proud of our recent accomplishments and excited to embark on this new chapter—honouring the legacy while embracing fresh opportunities in modern motorsport. Ecurie Ecosse remains deeply committed to excellence, and we’re thrilled to join forces with Blackthorn to bring our vision to life on the 70th anniversary of the Le Mans victory." Claude Bovet, Blackthorn founder and owner, commented: “We are very excited to partner with Ecurie Ecosse – an iconic brand with a rich racing history. With two 24 Hours of Le Mans victories to its name, it is an honour to continue this legacy with the aim of returning the legendary Scottish name to where it belongs – at Circuit de la Sarthe. First, however, we have Asian Le Mans Series in our sights where we’re aiming for the championship title with one of our Aston Martin GT3 EVOs.”
